Overexpression of SlZF3 enhances salt tolerance in tomato. (a) Phenotypes of wild‐type AC and transgenic lines grown under control conditions or 21 days of salt treatment. (b) The chlorophyll and MDA contents of tomato leaves. (c) The H2O2 and O2•− contents determined by histological staining with DAB and NBT, respectively. AC, Alisa Craig; AG, azygous; OE, overexpression; RNAi, RNA interference. The asterisks indicate statistically significant differences in either chlorophyll or MDA contents between the transgenic plants and the wild‐type AC as determined by the two‐tailed Student's t‐test with equal variances (***P < 0.001; *P < 0.05). Data represent means and SD of three biological replicates.
